  1. I still trust #MercurySteam for #MetroidRavenous, but given how #MetroidPrime4 was handled, I'll hold my pre-order.

    There are no signs the spanish studio mishandled this #Metroid game, and previous games have been good. The same we can say about #RetroStudios and look what happened.

    Hopefully #YoshioSakamoto did the right thing (as it seems this is his last project).

  6. Although the visualizer is still a bit rough, I've put together an index page where you can now download maps/stats, but also go straight to visualizations of exploration traces for the games I've been mapping (mostly Metroidvanias). The visualizer doesn't show multiple links or complex requirements well yet, and layouts are a challenge. But you can click around and see stuff, and the CSV files have interesting stats now (just submitted a paper for EXAG 2026 talking about metrics for discrete exploration games).

  11. « Un Metroidvania imprégné du folklore mexicain, mais c’est Guacamelee ! »

    Et non… remplace la “lucha libre” par des mariacchis, et ça donne Mariachi Legends ! En fait, son style visuel ressemble bien plus à un Castlevania : youtube.com/watch?v=S8FxDXI6Rb4

    Ça débarque le 27 avril 2027 sur Switch, PC et s.i.

  12. After finally getting around to finishing Metroid Prime Remastered, I gathered the courage to finish my first run of Metroid Dread.

    Man what a game. Definitely one of my favourite metroidvanias.

    It’s been way overdue, as I pre-ordered Dread, started playing day one and dropped it when I got stuck at the last boss. I then (foolishly) decided to turn it into a 100% run and dropped that too eventually.

  13. Today I finally beat Metroid Prime Remastered for the first time.

    It took me over 36h, which is largely because I took a long break (twice) in between and didn't take notes until quite late in the game.

    The other mistake I made was that I noticed I was already at 88% items on my own and decided to go for 100% to see the best ending. Without prior noted this was a grind an the ending did not make up for it.

    Good game otherwise.

  14. I actually thought that was the end for some reason, but of course there was the actual Metroid Prime boss fight!

    This one killed me twice but I found it easier than the other,

    Alas. is COMPLETE!

    #88% Completion

    18 hours of playtime (I got a bit lost sometimes lol)

  20. Give me a #MetroidPrime5 that delves into the following:

    The GF Squad was always working for #Sylux.

    Now you know why the missed shots, why these four "held" Sylux in the climax to let Samus escape. There is a reason, and Metroid Prime 5 could tell it.

  21. I'll always favor the last version rather than the first in #MetroidPrime.

    The first looks like somebody good the thing right, but is too oversized.

    The one in Metroid Prime looks like someone is on the suit, like someone made the ultimate cosplay.

  22. #MetroidPrime is not "dead".

    medium.com/p/9c7a3755769f/

    Their newer sales numbers are not to brag about, given how much #Nintendo invested on the game alone across two studios.

    ign.com/articles/nintendo-sile

    I believe the next #MetroidPrime5 will not have a huge investment in development. Who knows if they pivot to Unreal Engine 5 to keep costs down instead of their own engine + training.

  23. Neste vídeo, mostro o jogo Hollow Knight na versão nativa para Linux, em Full HD a 60 FPS na RX 550 — sem a interferência do OBS Studio. Isso só foi possível graças à placa de captura Husky Gaming. Meu velho laptop Dell Inspiron, com Intel Core i3 de quinta geração, foi usado para capturar a tela do meu PC principal.

  24. Posit:

    #HollowKnight is not a Soulslike, but it has souls elements: Dropping important currency on death, map areas that cannot be unlocked until later

    #Soulsborne are not Metroidvanias, but they have #Metroidvania elements: Frustrating, map areas that cannot be unlocked until later

    However, Metroidvania areas usually (but not always) must be unlocked with a new ability, usually some kind of movement kit. While Soulsborne areas are usually unlocked with an item, usually a key or other mcguffin obtained from a boss or elsewhere
